MORE ON THAT GOAL
Early intent from Roma forced a corner as Acerbi denied a Mkhitaryan cross, and after an inswinging ball was just kept out by Strakosha, the goalkeeper could only clear it as far as Abraham who poached in from close-range. What a season he's having!
GOAL! ROMA 1-0 LAZIO (ABRAHAM)
What a start! Abraham is in the right place at the right time just a few yards from goal to stab home a loose ball into an empty net from an early corner!
